announced today it received CE mark approval for its Vit Kit®- Freeze,
Vit Kit®- Thaw and Oil for Embryo Culture. This news accompanies the

CE is a mandatory conformity mark in European Economic Area for certain
product groups to indicate compliance with the essential consumer
safety, health and environmental requirements as set out in European
Directives and is widely recognized by regulatory authorities around the
world. "Irvine Scientific's commitment to deliver outstanding products
includes strict adherence to regulatory guidelines. Our ART customers
expect the highest quality products and service from their culture media
suppliers and recognize CE mark as an indicator of high product quality
control and good manufacturing management. The addition of CE mark on
our vitrification and oil products will drive us forward into the
European market," said Makoto Shintani, President and CEO, Irvine
Scientific.
